UD will NOT be producing Golf cards this year and may never again..

apparently there contract is up with Tiger, and the PGA so they are scuttling all future golf plans..

How disheartening..

Maybe Donruss or ITG should pick up the golf contract if its just laying there..

Interest in golf has fallen that quickly, to where they're not even renewing Tiger's deal? What a seemingly quick decline...

REALLY? I am very surprised... ohmy.gif

"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

I vow to no longer purchase any product that features sticker autographs...
If your user name is this color I'm afraid I'll have to pass on any proposed transactions at this time.

I dont really like golf, but it would be interesting to see Donruss branch into golf. They have got to be looking for somewhere else to expand.

That would be neat. Donruss loses baseball licensing, and decides to pick up UD's golf market.

That would be suicide for Donruss! If Upper Deck can't meet their demands No way could Donruss! Plus I like Donruss and don't want to see another Fleer because of something as bad a gamble as golf cards!

Hmm, that's interesting. You know I really liked the introduction of the 8X10 autos. The photography on those was well done I thought. I wish they had carried that design over to the baseball and football 8X10s they did. I liked the full size 8X10 photos, not the way they added the section on the bottom half with the baseball, football, and basketball 8X10s.

Anyhow, I'll miss the golf 8X10s.

I think ITG might pick Golf up. Golf needs a Manufature that can bring the excitment to collecting Golf. I mean c'mon follow me, say golf, Golf. The word is boring by itself. UD Golf. BORING. Now if ITG decieds to pick it up imagine ITG of Golf. They will bring you as close as they can get from HOF to the early rising. Or how bout this ITG The Ultimate Golf Collection. Imagine pulling a redemmer for a Authentic Ball card Used by Tiger, an Acutall ball used by Tiger cut into 4 peices and having one peice per card. I think that would be just to awsome for me. Just think about it ITG has hockey and that is it (maybe football dont know). I think hockey would do extremly well with the GOLF.

I collect: GU, AUTO and HiGH END INSERTS.

I need an awsome pic on the bottom of this.... any one wanna help me, PM me.

More details here in the Near future.....

It will be a challenge to get the collectors to come out for a lesser known brand....Collectors tend to rally around those that they know and those that they feel comfortable with....

Dang, I bet this means a sky rocket in golf card prices though.

I collect all cards of Ernie Sims (77/460=16.74%), Brett Favre (321/11536=2.78% :P), and Alando Tucker (14/398 = 3.51%)
